Dear Experts,
I am new to Alteryx and this is my first question here.
My organization has a data source on Azure Table storage Platform and I have been tasked to pull this data for the analysis purpose. The IT team has developed an api for me and the api documentation is like this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GET DATA in CSV
HEADERS
client_id abcdefghijkl12345
client_secret xyz98764123
Content-Type text/csv
PARAMS
start_dt 2020-07-09T00:00:00%2B08:00
end_dt 2020-07-09T23:59:59%2B08:00
PATH VARIABLES
product_code chairs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have searched so many places but cannot find any example which is connecting to an api source like this. For example most of the examples only cover the apis with no authentication and have never seen any example covering the Client ID and Client Secret for authentication.
Kindly help me get this data via Alteryx designer. I have an Idea that text input and Download tools will be used.
My approach was:
Put the URL in the text input tool and connect with download. I added the Client ID and Secret in the header section of download tool however this results in an error "Error: Download (8): Error transferring data: Couldn't connect to server"
I dont know how to test it. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
